Terms of Service

Draft — last edited July 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of Diamond & Iron's coaching subscription, including our website, video review process, training programs, and athlete dashboard (collectively, the "Service"). By creating an account, you agree to these Terms.

1. The Service

Diamond & Iron provides subscription-based coaching for baseball hitting and pitching mechanics, and baseball-specific strength and conditioning programming. Coaching is delivered through video review, written or recorded feedback, and programmed training plans. We do not guarantee specific athletic outcomes (e.g. velocity gains, roster placement, scholarship offers) — training response varies by athlete.

2. Accounts

• You must provide accurate information when creating an account.
• You're responsible for keeping your password confidential and for all activity under your account.
• You must be at least 18 years old to create an account. If you are coaching a minor athlete, the account must be created and controlled by the minor's parent or legal guardian. (See the minors note below — this line alone is not sufficient compliance.)

3. Subscriptions & Billing

• Subscriptions bill monthly and renew automatically until canceled.
• You can cancel anytime through the billing portal; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period.
• Adding a discipline to an existing plan is billed as a prorated charge for the remainder of the current cycle.
• [Fill in: your specific refund policy — e.g. no refunds for partial months, or a satisfaction-guarantee window.]

4. Video Submissions

• You retain ownership of any video you submit for coaching review.
• By submitting video, you grant Diamond & Iron a license to store, view, and annotate it solely for the purpose of providing coaching feedback to you.
• We do not use athlete video for marketing, public posting, or any purpose beyond coaching without separate, explicit written consent.

5. Acceptable Use

You agree not to use the Service to upload content you don't have the right to share, to harass coaches or other athletes, or to attempt to access another athlete's account or data.

6. Disclaimers

Training and strength programming carry inherent physical risk. You should consult a physician before beginning any new training program, particularly if you have an existing injury or medical condition. Diamond & Iron is not a medical provider and coaching feedback does not substitute for medical advice.

7. Limitation of Liability

[Standard liability limitation language goes here — this is exactly the kind of clause that should be drafted or reviewed by a lawyer familiar with your state's requirements, since enforceability varies by jurisdiction.]

8. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

A note on minors

Youth baseball coaching almost always involves athletes under 18. That means, depending on their age and your state:

• The U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) applies if you knowingly collect personal information — including video — from children under 13, requiring verifiable parental consent before collection.
• Several states have additional requirements for minors 13–17, particularly around video and image data.
• You likely need a parent/guardian consent flow at signup when the athlete is a minor — not just a checkbox burying it in these Terms — plus a way for a parent to review or delete their child's data on request.

This is a real compliance gap in the current build, not a formality. Get a lawyer familiar with COPPA and youth sports to review your signup flow specifically, before you're handling video of minors at scale.
